+==Noble furnace==
+The Noble Furnace is used for annealing and oxidation of different samples. Annealing can be done in a nitrogen or argon atmosphere. A bubbler has also been installed in the furnace, so it is possible to do both wet and dry oxidations. The maximum temperature of the furnace is 1000 <sup>o</sup>C.
+In the Noble Furnaces more dirty samples with metals and some specific polymers are allowed. Different sample holder are available for wafers and smaller samples (placed on a Si carrier wafer).
-This furnace is used to grow oxide on metals or dirty wafers and to anneal wafers up to 1000 degree Celsius.
+The furnace is located in service area Cx1.
+Please check the cross contamination information in LabManager before you use the furnace.
